MATCH-BOX.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 229,780, dated July 6, 1880.
Application filed April 8, 1880. (No model.) Patented in Sweden February 21, 1880.
To all whom it may concern: Y
Be it known that I, Gnone WENsrrRoM, of Stockholm, Sweden, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Match-Boxes, (for which Letters Patent No. 57 were granted to me by the government of Sweden on the 21st of February, 1880,) of which the following is a specification. I
The object of this invention is to facilitate the lighting of cigars in the open air and the the inner box, which, in connection with an opening in the outer box, forms a cutting device, combined with a chamber formed at the inside of the match-box to receive the cuttings. These features will be more particularly described with reference to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, wherein Figures 1 and 2 are sectional elevations of my improved match-box, the inner box being extended. Fig. 3 is an end elevation. Fig. at is a cross-section on line a." w of Fig. 2.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
a is-the inner box or cap; I), the outer box. The inner box, a, is divided, by a partition, a, length wise into two compartments-one for receiving matches, closed at the bottom and accessible by an opening, f, when the box a is drawn out, and the other serving as a lightingchamber, having a side openingflc, for theinsertion of the lighting end of a oigar,and small openings l, for esca peot'products ofcombustion.
.In the sides of the outer box, I), there are grooves 1', in which enter lugs or pins on the sides of box a, and the outer ends of said grooves r being closed, the outward movement of the inner box'is checked by the lugs or pins on the box a coming in contact with the closed ends 5 but when necessary to remove the inner box entirely it may be done by springing the boxes.
At the bottom of the lighting-chamber is a tongue or cutter, c, which, when box a is pushed in, passes over an opening, h, in the side of box 12, to cut the end or tip of a cigar when inserted at h. v
In the grooves rof box I) is fitted a plate, 0, to which is attached at right angles a plate, g, so that the plates 0 9 form a chamber in box I), beneath the opening h, for receiving the cigarends that are cut off.
The plate 0, with g, may be drawn out when the box a is removed, and the accumulation of cigar-ends emptied out.
Beyond the plate 9 the plate 0 extends into the lighting-chamber, and is formed with undercut edges 1), for retaining a piece of flintpaper and permitting its renewal.
In the boxes to b, at the side of the lightingchamber, a slot, m, is cut, of about the width of a common match at one end and enlarged at the other end, to permit the match to be inserted and drawn over the flint-paper to ignite it.
The manner of use is as follows: The box a is to be drawn out as far permitted by the grooves r, a match taken from the box, its end inserted in slot m, and drawn over the flint-paper to ignite the match. The match will then burn within the lighting-chamber, and by inserting the cigar into the hole it may be lighted.
By this device a cigar may be lighted in the open air, even when the Wind is blowing hard, as the flame is protected during the operation.
Having thus described my invention, 1 claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. The match-box consisting of the combined inner and outer boxes, at b, fitted to slide together, and formed with the lightingplate 0, openln g k, for the insert-ion of the lighting end of a cigar, and slot m, for the match, substantially as and for the purposes set iorth. I
2. In match-boxes, the slotted sliding inner box, a, divided by plate a, to form a matchreceptacle and a lighting-chamber, and provided with the openingsf 7c 1, combined with the slotted box I), substantially as shown and described.
3. ln match-boxes, the sliding box a, formed with the cutter '5, combined with the outer box, '1), formed with the opening it, and provided with the plates 0 g, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
